To access frequently used documents without having to remember their network path, add a built-in button to the toolbar. To do this, right-click on any toolbar button, and choose Customize. Select the Commands tab, then choose Built-In Menus from the Categories list. Select Work from the Commands list, drag it to an existing toolbar, then close the Customize dialog box. To add a document to your Work menu, open a saved document, click the Work button, and select Add To Work Menu. To access this document, even when it's closed, click the Work menu, and select the document.
